Has anyone, or is there any reputable source that has identified what type of information is sent back to China from these vehicles?

Could only read the 1st paragraph, but I see it's good old Pete Hoekstra,, previously the ambassador to the Netherlands for the 1st admin. Former West Michigan Congressman from Holland, MI. Now ambassador to Canada for some god forsaken reason.
He made a comment about the netherlands having no go zones for white people, they are burning cars, burning politicians... Then when asked about it later lied and called it fake news, they were like we have you saying it on camera right here.
Later asking him about it he just stops talking, the journalists are like please sir that's not how we do it in the netherlands. Good stuff. Hoekstra is a dumb asshole, also a nazi but that goes without saying at this point.
"security concerns" with the data collected by the vehicles... The same data every car company in the US is already collecting. If that's what you're concerned about, just pass a law banning that sort of data collection... Oh yeah, you meant Ford shareholder security.
That sounds like a bonus feature to me. The car keeps me safe by preventing me from entering fascist countries? I'd put that on the fucking sales brochure, honestly.
Now with NazFree™ Technology!
Anybody who feels that Trump'd be held-back by social-pressure, or propriety, instead of directly confiscating the things to prevent Canada from having them..
lmao
Trump's learning how to be the ONLY limit/law in the world, & all the social-pressure-will-work foolishness is only slowing his progress, NOT stopping him.
He can, I'm not saying he actually will, but there is nothing that can stop him from confiscating entire-ships of cars heading to Canada.
Nothing.
No rule-of-law can "force" him into stopping that, now.
Cuba's already an example of his confiscating other-country's rightful viability..
Venezuela was an example of him declaring himself to be president of their country..
either dig-in against him, XOR get popcorn & sit back: the show's still progressing.

If Trump seized a ship with Chinese cargo delivering to Canada, he would open the US up to pretty much every other country acting against US ships and US cargoes.
Hopefully there is still someone in his circle of influence who grasps the impact of a move that incredibly stupid.
I wasn't going there anyway

Link just brought me to a captcha I did and it said I did it but never redirected me to the page.
TickTock is fine though right?
TikTok, in the US at least, is now US-owned.
